Noam's advice at 25:20 is golden! I'll keep that in mind as I apply for my first UXR role.

Thanks for sharing!! This is SO relevant, especially right now with the current job market. Also going to be *virtually* attending the UXR conference in June!

That's going to be exciting! lemme know how the conference goes! Thanks for watching, Pranati! 💪
Wow! Thanks Kevin, for having Noam on this video. Amazing info. So impactful. Without watching this video, I would just simply apply for jobs once my portfolio is ready. Besides getting myself to have basic requirements and more, now I know I gotta start asking myself those important questions, networking, and more research asap! And yes, I just subscribed to Noam's channel. How can I not? So excited to see more of his videos and who you will be interviewing next. No pressure, Kevin. 😁

YES!!! THIS! When I first started, I definitely was applying pretty randomly, and yay! Noam has great conversations with UX industry leaders, too!
Thanks Kevin! There are many very solid tips for people preparing for UX research/design jobs; or even for job interviews in general! I got so many takeaway that I can’t wait to implement to my UX designer job hunting journey soon. As an ex-tech headhunter, I can relate exactly how the referrals work! Except now, I am at the other side of the table...quite nervous and anxious, but after I watched your video, I felt better and have more courage to proceed further. Thank you Kevin and Noam!

Thank you so much for the great interview!
Great video!! It's very insightful. Thank you for sharing this!!
This was amazing! I have been feeling stuck lately and this totally freed me. I come from very traditional/conservative fields of work and my thinking about applying for jobs has been outdated. Transitioning into UXR, I didn’t realize how different job matching has become. This was immensely helpful, thank you, Kevin & Noam!
